It says on rivals that Bryce is making his official visit on 6/3/10. Looks like this is the guy fran was talkin about.
 
Scouted as an 86 by ESPN Insider during his senior season of high school. Was ranked 46 at PG that year.

Dude we got a mighty mite, I love wathing those guys play....

Think Troy Skinner only quicker.
 
I am not one of those posters but saw him, Bowen and somebody else downtown on my way back to the office this afternoon.
 
I wonder which 20 games he started at Fresno State. If it was the last 20 games, then that is much better. Regardless, that's a lot of starts as a true freshman.

His coach says he is not a speedster, rather he knows how to control a game, get into the lane, and is more of a distributor. Sounds like a slower version of Chauncey Leslie to me (everyone's slower than Leslie so that's no knock). If he has anything close to Chauncey's skills, that would be an asset.
 
you're the second person who said he isn't fast or quick. I thought on ESPN they said he was a fast and quick type of pg?
 
Cool to see Bowen entertaining a recruit. He's got creds. He'd be a nice piece to the puzzle. We'd have some nice depth for a change.
 
Found this on the Fresno site

According to the Fresno Bee it is Bryce Cartwright. Comments anyone??

Below is an evaluation from ESPN.

Evaluation
March, 2008: Cartwright is one of the most underrated point guards on the West Coast. He has great speed, quickness and possesses a solid frame. His jump shot has improved immensely since his junior season and he's evolving into a solid Division I point guard. He ran his team down the stretch with aplomb and made a number of clutch plays to seal the victory for the Dons, including four straight free throws in the final two minutes of the game.

September, 2007: Cartwright was the most dazzling point guard of the day with his assortment of assists of the spectacular variety. He is one of the quickest point guards in the country, possessing that rare second gear in the open court. Although he favors going right, he does have a deadly crossover to get by his opponents. He can finish in the paint area off the drive or dish off to a teammate. He is more of a scoring point guard at this juncture; however his decision making has improved greatly over the past year and he is beginning look for open teammates more frequently. By the time the spring arrives, Cartwright should be gathering some Division I interest, especially if his decision making and jump shot continued to be sharpened.

Cartwright is one of the top sleepers in the class of 2008. He has an ideal frame for the "one" spot with fairly long arms and overall solid length. What separates him from most of his peers is his speed with the ball in his hands - he has that rare second gear that enables him to separate from defenders on the break. His handle (has a swift crossover) is excellent as he is able to breakdown defenders quite often off the bounce. On the other hand, his jump shot (more like a set shot at this point) needs some polishing. His release is quick, however, its trajectory has very little arc in it. With his elite athleticism he would be quite a handful if he develops a pull-up game. Cartwright is a solid defender as well due to his excellent lateral movement and quick hands. His feel for the game has improved since the regular season as he isn't forcing the issue as much. Despite the improvements at both ends of the floor, Cartwright needs to continue to develop a better understanding (decision-making) of the game and refine his jump shot.
 
Since I'm a Lakers fan maybe a Derrick Fisher type player. Short stocky heady player who does alot of things to win you games that don't turn up on the stat line.
